title: [The theory of caring by Watson].
abstract: The phenomenon of caring has been the object of much interest among researchers. This article explores the ten "carative" factors that form the core of Jean Watson's theoretical model and relates them to nursing practice. When incorporated into a treatment plan, the factors can help clients and their families develop a sense of responsibility and control over illness-induced stress. For nurses, the model can be a source of motivation and job satisfaction.
